Firecracker

We’re pretty celebrity obsessed over here at Shelf Pleasure, so of course the trailer for Firecracker by David Iserson massively appealed to us. He’s currently a writer on Fox’s New Girl and in this trailer, celebrity friends like Max Greenfield, Will Forte, and Jack McBrayer read passages of Iserson’s young adult novel aloud. We managed to look past the familiar faces to catch some pretty brilliant lines: “The richer you are, the more likely you’ll have friends with body parts made out of elephants.” “As a kid I played hide-and-seek by sitting on a bench.” Even cooler? The main character in the book lives in a rocket ship in the backyard of her parent’s estate. We’re counting down the days until the book releases on May 16th but in the meantime, enjoy the trailer below!
